New Broken Social Scene “World Sick”

Thank you Jebus! Broken Social Scene, quite possibly the best band in the world right now, have confirmed the title and cover art for their upcoming album, due out May 4th (I’d imagine it’ll be apr 30th in Ireland) on Arts & Crafts. The album, Forgiveness Rock Record, is the long-awaited proper follow-up to two of my absolute favourite records of the last decade, You Forgot It In People (2003) and Broken Social Scene (2005). In between times, the group have kinda reformed for decent Broken Social Scene Presents… albums by Kevin Drew and Brendan Canning. They also continued to play earth-shatteringly brilliant BSS gigs as their members such as Feist, members of Stars and Metric were catapulted to some kind of serious music-nerd-fame. They’ve got a smattering of tour dates up on the site, with Dublin looking conspicuously absent in their May schedule. You can listen to the new song below and claim your free download of the track on their site.
